LONDON, Nov. 25 (UPI) -- A survey of sexual attitudes and practices in Britain published Tuesday shows one in five would not divulge they had a sexually transmitted disease.
The worldwide Internet survey of 150,000 people was conducted by condom company Durex, and the British summary was reported in the Daily Mirror.
Other findings show nearly half said they would keep quiet if they had cheated on a partner and 53 percent said AIDS would not stop them sleeping around.
Thirty-four percent of Britons admitted having unprotected sex with a new partner in the last year compared to 65 percent in the Czech Republic and 19 percent in Italy.
Nine out of 10 Malaysians would not tell a lover if they had a sexually transmitted disease, compared with 55 percent worldwide.
Durex spokeswoman Catherine Gort said it is alarming that despite rising sexually transmitted infection rates worldwide, "people still take chances with their sexual health."
